Neeraj Chopra won the Olympic gold back in 2021 and since then has only gotten better.
So much so, that an Olympic legend is his latest fan.

Who are we talking about? None other than former American sprinter Michael Johnson.
Johnson took to Twitter to share a video of Neeraj and he was full of praise.
Take a look:
He’s a javelin thrower! Olympic champion javelin thrower, but a javelin thrower. With sprinter/jumper movement! Video: @beau_throws pic.twitter.com/4aCgxFfz2z

“He’s a javelin thrower! Olympic champion javelin thrower, but a javelin thrower. With sprinter/jumper movement!” Johnson wrote in the caption.

The video shows Neeraj performing his warm-up drills just like a sprinter or a jumper.
Johnson was in awe of Neeraj’s movements.
When an Olympic legend is singing your praises, you know you are doing something right.
